Tratamiento de la HAP Idiopática, Hereditaria o Asociada a Fármacos en Pacientes con Comorbilidades Cardiopulmonares
Este protocolo aborda el manejo farmacológico de primera línea para pacientes con hipertensión arterial pulmonar idiopática (IPAH), hereditaria (HPAH) o asociada a fármacos (DPAH) que también presentan comorbilidades cardiopulmonares que se superponen con factores de riesgo de FEcp.

Treatment decisions in patients with IPAH/HPAH/DPAH or PAH-CTD should be stratified according to the presence or absence of cardiopulmonary comorbidities (Section 6.3.4.3) and according to disease severity assessed by risk stratification (Section 6.2.7).
Cardiopulmonary comorbidities are predominantly encountered in elderly patients and include risk factors for HFpEF such as obesity, diabetes, coronary heart disease, a history of hypertension, and/or a low DLCO.
In patients with IPAH/HPAH/DPAH and cardiopulmonary comorbidities, initial monotherapy with a PDE5i or an ERA should be considered.
Initial monotherapy is recommended for most of these patients, with PDE5is being the most widely used compounds according to registry data.
